| 4 | 2.06 2002-07-15 neilb | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | * The four modules which have data after __DATA__ weren't | |
| 7 | closing the DATA filehandle after reading from it, | |
| 8 | which they should. Bug and patch from Steve Hay. | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | 2.05 2002-07-08 neilb | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | * Added three letter codes for the countries that were missing | |
| 13 | them. Patch from TJ Mather. | |
| 14 | * Documentation bug: one of the examples used => where the | |
| 15 | lvalue was a constant, which isn't allowed, unless you | |
| 16 | put the () with the constant to force the right interpretation. | |
| 17 | Pointed out by TJ Mather and MYT. | |
| 18 | * Updated the URL for the appendix in the CIA world factbook. | |
| 19 | Patch from TJ Mather. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | 2.04 2002-05-23 neilb | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | * updated according to changes in ISO 3166-1 described | |
| 24 | in ISO 3166-1 newsletters V-4 and V-5, dated 2002-05-20: | |
| 25 | - Kazakstan is now "Kazakhstan" | |
| 26 | - Macau is now "Macao" | |
| 27 | The old names are retained as aliases. | |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | The alpha-2 and alpha-3 codes for East Timor have changed: | |
| 30 | tp -> tl | |
| 31 | tmp -> tls | |
| 32 | the numeric code stays 626. If you want to support the old | |
| 33 | codes, you can use the semi-private function alias_code(). | |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | 2.03 2002-03-24 neilb | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | * Fixed a typo in the alias for the Vatican, reported (with patch) | |
| 38 | by Philip Newton. | |
| 39 | * Added "Moldova" as an alias for "Moldova, Republic of" | |
| 40 | * Updated Makefile.PL to include AUTHOR and ABSTRACT | |
| 41 | ||
| 42 | 2.02 2002-03-09 neilb | |
| 43 | ||
| 44 | * added semi-private routine rename_country() to Locale::Country, | |
| 45 | based on a patch from Iain Chalmers. | |
| 46 | * added test rename.t for the above function. | |
| 47 | * renamed _alias_code to be alias_code. Have retained the old | |
| 48 | name for backwards compatibility. Will remove it when the | |
| 49 | major version number next changes. | |
| 50 | ||
| 51 | 2.01 2002-02-18 neilb | |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | * Split the documentation for all modules into separate pod files. | |
| 54 | * Made sure all =over were =over 4; some were other values. | |
| 55 | * The code2code() methods had one more shift than was needed. | |
| 56 | ||
| 57 | 2.00 2002-02-17 neilb | |
| 58 | ||
| 59 | * Created Locale::Script which provides an interface to the | |
| 60 | ISO codes for identification of scripts (writing scripts, | |
| 61 | rather than perl style scripts). The codes are defined | |
| 62 | by ISO 15924, which is currently in final draft. | |
| 63 | Thanks to Jarkko for pointing out this new standard. | |
| 64 | All three code sets are supported, and a test-suite added. | |
| 65 | ||
| 66 | * Added support for country name variants to Locale::Country, | |
| 67 | so that | |
| 68 | country2code('USA') | |
| 69 | country2code('United States') | |
| 70 | country2code('United States of America') | |
| 71 | will all return 'us'. | |
| 72 | This had been in the LIMITATIONS section since the first version. | |
| 73 | Patch from TJ Mather <tjmather@tjmather.com> with additional | |
| 74 | variants from me. Added test-cases for these. | |
| 75 | ||
| 76 | * Added VERSION to Locale::Constants. Thanks to Jarkko for | |
| 77 | pointing that it was missing. | |
| 78 | ||
| 79 | * Should really have bumped major version with previous release, | |
| 80 | since there was a change to the API. | |
| 81 | ||
| 82 | 1.06 2001-03-04 neilb | |
| 83 | ||
| 84 | Added Locale::Constants, which defines three symbols | |
| 85 | for identifying which codeset is being used: | |
| 86 | ||
| 87 | LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2 | |
| 88 | LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_3 | |
| 89 | LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC | |
| 90 | ||
| 91 | Updated Locale::Country to support all three code sets | |
| 92 | defined by ISO 3166. This was requested by Keith Wall. | |
| 93 | I haven't added multiple codeset support to the other | |
| 94 | modules yet - I'll wait until someone asks for them. | |
| 95 | ||
| 96 | 1.05 Feb 2001 | |
| 97 | ||
| 98 | Added Locale::Currency, contribution from Michael Hennecke. | |
| 99 | Added testsuite for it (t/currency.t) and added testcases | |
| 100 | to t/all.t for the all_* functions. | |
| 101 | ||
| 102 | 1.04 Dec 2000 | |
| 103 | ||
| 104 | Fixed very minor typos from 1.03! | |
| 105 | ||
| 106 | 1.03 Dec 2000 | |
| 107 | ||
| 108 | Updated Locale::Country: | |
| 109 | - fixed spelling of a few countries | |
| 110 | - added link to a relevant page from CIA world factbook | |
| 111 | ||
| 112 | Updated Locale::Language: | |
| 113 | - fixed typo in the documentation (ISO 939 should be 639) | |
| 114 | ||
| 115 | 1.02 May 2000 | |
| 116 | ||
| 117 | Updated Locale::Country and Locale::Language to reflect changes | |
| 118 | in the relevant ISO standards. These mainly reflect languages | |
| 119 | which are new to the relevant standard, and changes in the | |
| 120 | spelling of some country names. | |
| 121 | ||
| 122 | Added official URLs for the standards to the SEE ALSO sections | |
| 123 | of the doc for each module. | |
| 124 | ||
| 125 | Thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi for pointing me at the pages | |
| 126 | with latest versions of ISO 3166 and 639. | |
| 127 | ||
| 128 | 1.00 March 1998 | |
| 129 | ||
| 130 | Added Locale::Country::_alias_code() so that 'uk' can be added | |
| 131 | as the code for "United Kingdom", if you want it. | |
| 132 | This was prompted by Ed Jordan <ed@chronos.net> | |
| 133 | ||
| 134 | Added a new testsuite for handling this case, and extended the | |
| 135 | existing test-suite to include testing of the case where | |
| 136 | 'uk' hasn't been defined as a valid code. | |
| 137 | ||
| 138 | 0.003 May 1997 | |
